  This is a popular narrative history of the world's greatest war.  Written frankly from the viewpoint of the United States and the Allies, it visualizes the bloodiest and most destructive conflict of all the ages from its remote causes to its glorious conclusion and beneficent results.Two ideals have been before us in the preparation of this necessary work.  These are simplicity and thoroughness.  It is of no avail to describe the greatest of human events if the description is so confused that the reader loses interest.  Thoroughness is an historical essential beyond price.  So it is that official documents prepared in many instances upon the field of battle, and others taken from the files of the governments at war, are the basis of this work.  All that has gone into war making, into the regeneration of the world, are herein set forth with historical particularity.  The stark horrors of Belgium, the blighting terrors of chemical warfare, the governmental restrictions placed upon hundreds of millions of civilians, the war sacrifices falling upon all the civilized peoples of earth, are in these pages.  (From the Forward)

  “I don’t want to gp. I just can’t do it anymore.” "My stomach hurts, and I'm afraid of throwing up." "It sucks. What’s the point.” "I'm tired. I need a break. "I'm just fine where I am, in my room."
  Since the health crisis, Thierry Delcourt has observed a considerable increase in children who cannot or no longer want to go to school, not only for problems of violence, racketeering and bullying, but rather for much more troubling reasons—hostility, laziness, convenience or opportunism. According to the author, who has cross-checked data from National Education and the CNED, absenteeism at school has increased by 10% over the last 3 years. 
  This book aims to enlighten anxious parents, disoriented teachers, and psychologists who are overwhelmed by these situations, and to provide an approach to understand and overcome these obstacles that lead to school dropout and, in the long run, to school failure. Each chapter refers to a particular situation, analyzes the reason for it and then offers advice on how to combat this scourge.

  I'm a teenager and I call my shrink

  “It's better to talk to you than to my parents; I wouldn't want to hurt their feelings. “Anguish, when it takes hold of me, is a terrible abyss! “I don't know who I am anymore. It's like voices are talking to me, it's weird; I'm scared” ... Today, teenagers dare to consult on their own. We welcome the end of the taboo, and the fact that it's easier to talk, but beware of the dizzying distress that can be caused, because it only takes a little for a teenager's life to turn upside down. The precipitous and uncertain evolution of society, of the family, of the relationship to work and to culture, upsets the reference points of the teenager and his parents. Adolescence is therefore a crucial time for talking: it's the time to make it a priority. Thierry Delcourt guides us and suggests concrete situations to help parents and teenagers find their way towards greater well-being and dialogue. Let's not forget that the teenage period is rich in creative potential, which needs to be revealed. The book is aimed at teens and parents alike. It can even be read together, as a way of talking and hearing each other differently.
